PLEASE HELP - Rear suspension - Pricing & Info

2002 93 SE - I purchased with 44k in June and am now at 66k (100 mile roundtrip work commute. I was informed by my Saab dealer and I confirmed visually that my struts and rear shocks are bleeding and in poor shape. Luckily my extended warranty covers the struts, but my rear shocks are not. Not being mechanically smart I'm thinking no big deal just a couple rear shocks, but to me dropping to the floor, I was given a price of $575.00. I'm thinking $100.00, so obviously I'm shocked.
2 questions:
1. What would cause both struts and shocks to go at only 50-60,000 miles, I mean did the former owner drive only on cobblestone roads...yikes ????
2. Any recommendations on shocks and what price should I be looking at???
As always, Thank a bunch for all your help. This car has been a nightmare purchase for me(6 months - throttle body replaced, cannister purge valve, ACC Control unit, replaced brand new tires 2 months after purchase caused by struts or alignment to be off, my brand new rear tires have become chopped caused by the rear shocks)
