The falcon 9 first stage has been tested to be reused 11 times so far. A boeing airframe on the other hand lasts 30 years. There is therefore the cost of bringing these rare earth materials found perhaps around the world together in one place to launch a finished falcon 9 rocket, independent of any fuel considerations, that should also be thought about.
