Inexpensive Slip Ring for Turret

Hello CD!
I'm the programming and electrical lead for team 4388 and we are wanting to create a turret for our robot and we hope to make it turn more than 360 degrees. I have done some research on slip rings that can carry enough current and 8 conductors for motors and signal but have had no luck finding any that aren't very expensive, around the $600 range. If anybody knows any good slip rings I'm open to options and alternative methods.
Thanks!
