That sounds plausible but do you have a source? The SpaceX document only gives the one price and payload.

That's what it says on the Falcon Heavy Wikipedia page.

The payload is definitely for expended boosters (check the footnotes). I agree it's not very clear about the price. Wikipedia could be out of date I guess and they're not giving a discount for booster reuse? But then why would anyone ask for reuse?
