Awww, great to hear. (Although I am not a fan of cd's, generally.)
A few years ago when I met Sabaton they were still a small and barely known band - except for in Sweden and in my country where all the metal kids are crazy about them, and that meant the world to them. Ever since I've been watching their popularity among metallers around the world grow rapidly, and that's great cuz they truly deserve it. AND because they are awesome and very nice guys
