To the OP, sounds like a load to me. Mechanic sees $$. My guess is that the battery needs to be replaced and the starter is fine. But I could be wrong.

Seems like these days, they all do that, except maybe for miatas. Most of the battery failures that I've had in the past 25 years have worked great, then maybe 1 or 2 slow starts, then completely dead. I think I've had 2 miata batteries in the past 10 years or so that gave me lots and lots of warning, but I'm guessing that may be because they are AGM batteries.
