Need YOUR help! Alternator AND pulley bad at the same time? hmmm

My 02 boxster has been squeaking like mad while running and my mechanic told me it was the alternator pulley making noise. He also told me to replace the alternator because it was making some noise too.

Does it even make sense in terms of probability to have BOTH components going bad at the same time?

They tried to charge me $900 ($350 labor $550 parts) but I found the parts for $160-170. So overall it's going to cost a bit over 500... about to take it in soon.

What do you guys think?
