While I feel the last nugget of advice is generally true (and almost certainly true in this case), this is not a hard and fast rule, there are exceptions. Afterall, just a few posts ago a board member bought an ungraded card for ~$650 and got it graded. He could now sell it in the $8,000-$9,000 range. If the original owner would have paid the $7 to get it graded he would have done very,very well. There are deals out there, you just have to hunt for them. In the vast majority of cases, the advice in the previous post by Hankron is correct though.
