I have been looking everywhere for Andrew Lang's colored fairy books (blue, red, yellow, green, etc) in hardcover for a while now. Does anyone know where I could find them sold individually? I've looked on amazon and eBay and they don't have what I'm looking for. Does anyone know where I could look for them? Any help would be appreciated thanks!!

Found quite a few on abebooks.com.Violet, olive, lilac, grey, green and pink on the first page of results.
I’ve never had any issues using sellers from their. Just bought a couple books from folks there over the past few months, in fact.
Most 2nd hand booksellers will have at least one (OK, I had the Blue one, sold yrs ago!) and most book-selling sites will have them too, as Trike found.But if you have the time/energy, and you don't mind reading on a computer, they can ALL be found on the Gutenberg website for free.

The Folio Society made some beautiful reproductions that we were getting for my son, one volume a year, but of course they aren't doing any more so we only have, like, 3 of them (plus some older editions we picked up elsewhere). Not sure how much they run on the second hand market.
In ebook format, the De;phi Collected works: Delphi Collected Works of Andrew Lang and the Complete Fairy Books is an excellent volume. I have it and read all of them. It doesn't contain all the illustrations though
