Here you can check the price on all Brazilian exchanges: http://bitvalor.com

Right now available for sale at: R$ 1,240.00
Exchange rate now: = R$ 3.86
So, available for sale right now at USD 321.24
Bitstamp right now = USD 324.3
Bitfinex = USD 329.6

So... it's even cheaper.

So maybe the exchange is cheaper, but if you want to take bitcoin out of the exchange, you have to pay tax? Can anybody confirm that?

You must be talking about the tax i mentioned? The tax is on receiving fiat from selling Bitcoin, which is improperly tagged in Brazil, as a good of sort. So if they sell 1k worth of Bitcoin they need to pay 300$ which completely kill the deal. Hence why some exchanges had the price at a huge markup.
