Sometimes they split the shares.

IE the stock price is $1000 and they declare that from then on each old share will be worth 10 new shares, at $100 each.

I'm no finance nerd but that makes me think that in the grand scheme of things, the value per stock doesn't matter much.

It doesn't. Only when you add up the combined value of every stock in existence do you get any kind of indication of a company's worth.
