I've been thinking of getting a used Galaxy Nexus and noticed that it uses a micro sim. I currently have the Bionic which uses a regular sized sim card. Once I get a micro sim from Verizon, is it possible to switch back my existing regular sim in the Bionic by punching the phone's IMEI into the device change interface on the MyVerizon website.

I'd prefer to not deal with an adapter.

the best thing to do is to get the micro SIM then order adapters online to use the micro SIM in a phone that uses a mini SIM

I switch between my Rezound and my Nexus with an adapter, and it works great

I am just a dumb premium retailer representative, so I don't know a great deal about adapters, but it is something interesting and I will have to look into.

I haven't had any success moving between a micro and a mini sim card, once the old 1 is deactivated it is no longer use.

Apparently however if you factory reset the phone and make it go through the original activation sequence I have heard that people were able to reactivate old sim cards
