They work pretty much like gift cards, which means you can put any value you want on them. Standard amount usually ranges from 500 to 10,000 yen though.
The kind of QUO card Konata talks about, however, are more of a type of "collectible goods" geared towards otakus, which are no different from normal cards except they often feature original illustrations of a certain anime/manga/bishojo game series (which makes them highly desirable for the fans). These are often available through online/magazine mail orders or prize drawings (like what Comtiq does). This is pretty much the same with the phone cards, although they have been around for longer.
Just like Konata said, cards like these are mainly for collection purposes, so the cash value on them is usually low (500-1000 yen range), which makes them more affordable for collectors.
