Samsung 30mm question

I have bought a 30mm pancake on ebay for a very low price compared to other sellers/online shops. It was sold as new. I have just received it and I noticed there is some play in the lens; when I move it the inner barrel holding the lens seems to play a bit to the sides and make a noise. Is this normal for this lens or should it be totally firm? I understand that it might be completely normal but I have not handled such a lens before and my only other NX lens is the kit lens 18-55 which I bought broken. I have not yet tested the 30mm on my NX10 (@ work) so not sure if it completely works. If someone can confirm though that the lens should be wobbling anyway that would be good to alay my fears.

Thanks.
