You can seize it up and wear out the fingers on the pressure plate.

Best case scenario, nothing bad happens. Worst case, it seizes, something screws up bad and f*cks your whole transmission.

You drive on a broken part, you takes your chances

no they aren't expensive parts. if your gonna pay someone to do the work though... i think it's about 6 hours... maybe less, but that's a bundle of cash. do it yourself, and it's awesome. one of my favorite jobs. involved but rewarding.
