Choice C provides a clear explanation of the reason for the delay and gives a specific new delivery time. It also acknowledges that there has been a delay without making any promises that cannot be kept. Choice A sounds negative and unhelpful, while choice B is too vague and does not give any information on when the samples will arrive. Choice D implies that the delay is not significant, which may not be accurate or helpful to the customer.
