Auto Zone rebuild VS. Local Guy rebuild.........

I keep reading on this forum not to buy starters or alternators from Auto Zone and rather to have a local shop rebuild one. Can anyone explain WHY ?
I would think that with the lifetime warranty that AutoZone really stands behind their product. And How can I trust some local shop ? How do I know they will stay in business?

The reason why I ask this now is because I have a family member who is need of an alternator for their 1997 Ford Explorer. The prices are the same. Why should I get it from one and not the other?
