A self-check-out stand has a flat belt on which items that have been scanned can be placed. This belt abuts a declining belt, with both belts preferably having abutting ends with upper corners in which a fixed non-rotating nose rod is located with the rod extending across the width of the belt, the rods hold the abutting ends tightly together with only a small crack between the belts. The check-out stand has two sets of unpowered transition rollers to turn the items at an obtuse angle to the conveyer belts. The stand has a declining set of rollers to bring the items to the proper height for the customer to bag. The accumulation area rises from front to back to slow the items being conveyed. A scanner module with a monitor and pay station can be placed at the front end of the stand.
