If I planned, as you do, to hold "periodic tournaments" with a "small entry fee," I wouldn't sweat the byes. Just charge everyone the same. I don't agree that "it's not fair" that some get a bye and some don't, since everyone has the same chance of getting a bye from your random draw.
If you charge bye receivers more, the fair price for their byes would be to charge them twice as much as those who don't get byes, since each of them is effectively occupying two spots in the round of 16.
